This is "The Web" by the Pro Pinball Team, made originally in 1996 as a computer game.
 
This PC pinball game was my first real simulation at that time. It got me hooked instantly and I remember placing a paper sheet with the main insert texts in front of my monitor, as the screen resolution did not allow readable insert texts on the playfield.
This summer I wrote an e-mail to the Pro Pinball team to ask for their opinion about a Visual Pinball remake of that table. Adrian Barrit replied soon and gave me permission to proceed with the VPin version. Unfortunately he was not able to contribute any material. So I searched the web for "The Web". I found a decent playfield image, I started a redraw with and detailed table rules and strategies by Erik Mooney and Jonas Martinsson.
I still have the game CD, so I recorded the table callouts, the main music and used UltraPeepi's UltraDMD for the DMD display and animations.
 
Zany created the 3D models and textures of the space ships and some playfield details as Flippers, Bumper caps, Flashers.
 
The table needs Ultrpeepi's DMD module to run. So please install it first and place the folder "The Web.UltraDMD" in the same directory as the table file.

PinballWiz45b did a great job testing the table and pointing out several bugs and issues.
 
Arngrim added the DOF code and changed the B2S activation to the new controller file, so no more "B2S = True" parameter has to be set.
The music tracks must be unzipped and copied to Your "Visual Pinball\Music" folder. Please replace the older music files, if You already have installed a version prior to 1.1, as the file names have been changed for the BGout output.
 
If You have a previous version, please replace the folder "The Web.UltraDMD", as quit a lot new animations have been added.
Thanks again to Adrian Barritt for his permission to proceed.
 
Have fun and please use the support topic to post any findings and suggestions
Michael

Definitely this table is a pure master piece :) Hoping for more reproduction adapted to VP CAB especially from the good old virtual pinball age. :) So many good memory:

 

Just to name few of the best 90s:

 

Pinball illusions

Pinball dreams

Pinball fantasies

Extreme Pinball

Pinball Mania

Psycho Pinball

Slam Tilt

Balls Of Steel

 

Congratulation Michael and all others involved .... Can't stop playing this beautiful re-mastered table :tup:

 

Regards

Robert

Hi,

After struggling for hours not being able to get UltraDMD working, here is what I did:

 

Uninstalled, cleaned registry

Installed to default location c:\program Files

ran sample table that is an optional download.  (This was the critical step I was missing)

Set up my exit script in pinball X to also force quit ultradmd.exe after playing a table by adding:  taskkill /f /im UltraDMD.exe

 

Hope it helps folks
